Chapter 37: Evil Spirits Haunt People's Hearts
Zhao Dewei's residence is not far from Liang'an Qianzhuang, walk for half an hour, and see a large mansion with continuous houses in front of him, very gorgeous, facing south, placing two mighty stone lions, manes flying, eyes and teeth. It's a pity that it didn't go through the enlightenment of the masters, and it only got its shape, which is two pieces of stone dead things.
Shopkeeper Zhao and Wang Xiaoer came to the door, and before they could step in, they heard a cry and noise inside, and they were surprised to see a man running out naked.
Shopkeeper Zhao was surprised: "Where did this madman come from?"
Wang Xiaoer cried and said, "This is the master." β
Shopkeeper Zhao was really stunned now.
Cousin Zhao Dewei is a well-known rich man in Nanyang Mansion, with a net worth, usually pampered, pot-bellied, tall and fat body, no matter where he stands, he can be recognized at a glance. I didn't see it for a few days, why did it become so shriveled, and the skin of my whole body was saggy, as if the flesh and blood inside were gone.
After the shopkeeper Zhao knew about this cousin, he liked Fengyue and was not happy. However, there is a cloud since ancient times: people are not windy, and they are vain and rich, but they are also ordinary, and there is nothing to say. However, even if you are addicted to alcohol, there is absolutely no reason to become like this in a short period of time.
I remember that when he came to Qianzhuang a few days ago, he was still shiny and energetic.
The shopkeeper Zhao didn't think twice, and hurriedly came over to hug Zhao Dewei and ask what was going on, but Zhao Dewei didn't seem to know him anymore, and his head and face were just a slap.
Syllable!
Shopkeeper Zhao was almost stunned, and when he saw his cousin's eyes, he suddenly opened his big mouth and bit again.
Crazy, he's crazy!
Shopkeeper Zhao was so frightened that he crawled and quickly dodged.
At this time, Xiaoyao Fudao and Chen Sanlang came, and the Taoist priest opened his eyes, his eyes were shining, and his face was different, but he unexpectedly did not move.
Chen Sanlang asked, "How?"
"All his essence, blood, and yang energy have been sucked out, and he is going to die. β
"Ahh
Chen Sanlang shouted.
Crackling!
In an instant, Boss Zhao, who was very crazy over there, fell down and lay on the ground, and there was no sound.
After a while, Zhao Shopkeeper and Zhao Dewei's family members rushed up to inspect, and saw that Zhao Dewei's body was blue, his face and cheeks were shriveled, and his bones were protruding, which looked quite terrifying.
"The lord is dead!"
Immediately there was a wailing and crying.
Chen Sanlang said: "That demon is so unscrupulous?"
As soon as Zhao Dewei dies like this, and the appearance of his death is extremely abnormal, his family will definitely sue the yamen. Contact Zhao Dewei these days have been in the painting boat of Chunshan Building, and they have spent all their time in the bed of Eighteen Ji, and fools know that Eighteen Ji is very problematic.
In this way, isn't it equivalent to self-exposure?
The Taoist priest ate and smiled: "Demons act evilly, why should they scruple?"
"Then why did it go to the trouble of mixing in with the painting boat?"
The Taoist priest said indifferently: "Maybe it's for playfulness, or it's for curiosity...... In a word, a demon is a demon, not a human being, and thoughts and deeds are not something that ordinary people can guess. β
Chen Sanlang listened, but he understood a little.
Demons and spirits, their formation and human growth process are almost incomparable, what people are sophisticated, what rules and laws, in the eyes of monsters, they can't understand at all, and they won't care. To put it bluntly, they just act spontaneously and instinctively.
And for many demons, absorbing human yang energy to strengthen their own body strength is the most instinctive thought.
Zhao Dewei died, and there was quite a lot of movement, and only half an hour later, someone from the yamen came and interrogated him on the spot. Not long after, a team of elite cavalry, led by a guerrilla general, went out of the city to Xiaoqinhuai.
The Taoist priest said in a deep voice: "Scholar, this Taoist master will follow and take a look." β
Chen Sanlang hurriedly said: "Take me." β
"This Dao Master is going to subdue demons and eliminate demons, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to see you slay demons!"
He spent his tongue to ask the Taoist priest to kill the demon, which had another purpose, and what was the use if he didn't go.
"Trouble!"
The Taoist priest complained, grabbed Chen Sanlang with one hand, took out two half-foot-long orange talismans from his pocket with the other hand and pasted them on his legs, and recited a spell in his mouth.
The soldiers guarding the city gate felt only a flash in front of them, and they couldn't see anything clearly, and the man passed.
Chen Sanlang's feet did not touch the ground, the wind in his ears was whistling, as if he was driving the clouds, and he was amazed in his heart: "This is the Tao, compared to the light skills of the so-called martial arts masters, I don't know how much to win." β
Of course, in fact, he has never seen light work.
The night was deep, and the always lively little Qin Huai had an accident today. The guerrilla general came with cavalry, immediately expelled the crowd and cordoned off the surroundings.
The boat at Chunshan Tower was not moored on the shore, and it didn't even appear tonightβor, it never will.
The Taoist priest and Chen Sanlang stopped from a distance to watch, and the Taoist priest stomped his feet: "Sure enough, I was run away by this demon." After a pause: "Scholar, it's all your fault, now it's okay, you can't get rid of demons." β
Chen Sanlang muttered, "How did I know that this demon is like this?"
The Taoist priest spread his hands: "Then what should I do now? What about the contract you signed?"
Chen Sanlang pondered for a moment: "I don't think it left." β
As soon as the Taoist priest was in good spirits, he immediately stretched his neck, shrugged his nose one after another, sniffing around like a dog, and then said angrily: "I can't smell it at all." β
Chen Sanlang asked, "How much can your nose sniff?"
"At least ten feet. β
The Taoist priest was very proud.
Chen Sanlang couldn't cry or laugh: "When I said not leaving, I didn't mean that it was still in Xiao Qinhuai, but it might be lurking around Nanyang Mansion." β
The Taoist priest sighed: "The range is so large, but it is difficult to find." β
Chen Sanlang said: "If it's really so easy to deal with, why should I ask you to come out at a high price?"
The Taoist priest obviously regarded this sentence as Chen Sanlang's sycophancy, and was complacent: "That's right." In this case, without further ado, this Dao Ye immediately searched the whole city to dig it out. β
Whoosh, he didn't pay attention to Chen Sanlang at all, and suddenly ran away.
Chen Sanlang was speechless, and he didn't know whether he hoped that the other party would succeed or fail.
As soon as the Taoist priest left, he was not seen for two or three days, but apparently he did not succeed in subduing demons and eliminating demons. Because in the past two days, there have been terrifying rumors spreading, saying that there is a demon in Nanyang Mansion who specializes in eating people's hearts, and several scholars have been eaten in the wild, and their deaths are very terrifying.
On the one hand, he demanded that the yamen be sealed and that the information should not be transmitted to Yangzhou; on the other hand, he sent more men to patrol around, not only to kill the demons, but also to stabilize the hearts of the people.
In the inn, Chen Sanlang heard these rumors a lot, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, I don't know why this demon changed his taste and specialized in eating the hearts and livers of scholars. Could it be that after it came out to eat people, it ate and ate, and finally felt that the scholar's heart and liver were the most nourishing, so he was confused, and he only loved this bite?
Quite possibly......
On this day, the Taoist priest suddenly appeared in the inn, his expression was a little haggard, and he looked at Chen Sanlang with hooked eyes: "Scholar, I have thought of a way to subdue demons and eliminate demons." β
Chen Sanlang asked, "What way?"
"This guy is so cunning that I can't find it, but with the bait it's different. β
"Bait?"
The Taoist priest said: "Doesn't it like to eat the hearts and livers of scholars?"
Chen Sanlang thought thoughtfully: "So you want to find a scholar as bait?"
The Taoist priest grinned: "Don't look for it, aren't you just a good scholar with smooth skin and tender flesh?"
